Backup, Restore and Migrate your sites with XCloner
By watchful
Description
XCloner is a backup plugin that allows you to safely back up and restore your WordPress sites. You can send your site backups to SFTP, Dropbox, Amazon, Google Drive, Backblaze, and other locations. You can create backups manually or automatically with XCloner’s built-in scheduler.
XCloner enables you to automatically generate backups with the built-in cron script. These cron jobs can run daily, weekly, monthly, or even hourly.
XCloner allows you to generate custom backups of any WordPress site, and then restore the backup on any other location with the help of the automatic restore script provided.
XCloner has many useful safety features. For example, it generates a core, plugins, themes, or languages files backup before the automatic update of WordPress core, plugins, themes, or languages files.
XCloner allows you to send your backups to remote storage locations supporting FTP, SFTP, Dropbox, Amazon S3, Google Drive, WebDAV, Backblaze, Azure, and many more.
You can generate “Differential Backups” so your backup will include only files modified after a certain date, decreasing the space needed to store your backups.
XCloner also has safety features to ensure your backups are successful. You can split backups into multiple smaller parts if a certain size limit is reached, and store a local copy of the backup that will be deleted when sent to the remote location.
XCloner uses open source standards like TAR, MySQL, and CSV formats for flexibility and control over your backups. It has a built-in security layer to protect your backups, allowing you to create encrypted backup archives with AES-128-CBC algorithm to ensure GDPR compliance.
You can restore backups on any compatible location using the XCloner restore feature. It can restore your site clone on a different server, updating your WordPress configuration details automatically.
XCloner has a variety of restoration options including: All Files, Only Plugin Files, Only Theme Files, Only Uploads Files, and Only Database Backup.
XCloner integrates smoothly with the Watchful dashboard, a web developers toolbox for remotely managing and monitoring multiple WordPress websites.

FAQ
XCloner stores them in separate mysql dump files, inside a folder called xcloner-XXXXX inside the backup archive root path, where XXXXX is a hash number that is identical with the last 5 characters of the backup name,
so if the backup name is backup_localhost-2017-02-16_15-36-sql-1c6c6.tgz , the mysql backup file will be stored in xcloner-1c6c6/ folder.
